Come Close, Draw Nigh

James 4:8  Come close to God and He will come close to you.

If I move toward God, He moves closer to me.   The Father will give me a wise spirit, along with revelation that comes through know Him fully.  Then, I will have the eyes of my heart enlightened and I will know the confidence that is produced by God who called me.  I will know the rich glory that is His inheritance among the saints and the unlimited greatness of His power for me according to His might strength which He brought about in Jesus the Messiah when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right and in the heavenly realm. (Ephesians 1:17-20)

As I align my priorities, my desires, my thoughts and behaviors with what He wills, I find that I am walking with Him.

John 15:4  Abide in me, and I will abide in you.  Just as the branch cannot produce fruit by itself unless it abides in the vine, neither can you abide in me.

All God is asking me for is simple, quiet fellowship with Him.  For His yoke is easy and His burden is light (Matthew 11:30)
